This duet arrangement of Peter and the Wolf can be performed by two pianists, or an assortment of up to twelve players. A teacher can involve several students in the music making and narrating, or several teachers can divide the six sections among their students and enjoy a multiple studio

event. Of course, teachers may also want to participate! Peter and the Wolf works very well for performing in many situations: recitals; club, camp, or school programs; and family or other special gatherings. Each section is preceded by a paragraph for narration. It may be used in two ways."read straight through and followed by the performance of each section; or, at each circled letter ( @) say "Here is the music representing (Peter)," and play from the appropriate circled letter (@) marked in the score. Then return to the narration. With the special attention to the themes the performance time is approximately 25 minutes.
